Hello! I'm hoping someone can help me with my problems please. When I play MKV over the LAN it constantly freezes and requires me to pause then un-pause to get it working again. The connection is 1GBPS and I can stream with no problems to my Pi and other HTPC devices I have tried. The movies are high bitrate but it doesn't seem to be taxing the CPU or RAM too much. I'm wondering if it is a problem with the buffer emptying and if so is there a way to increase the buffer? I've used lots of different images and this problem has been consistent with all builds. I'm currently using very latest openvix.
The other issue I'm having is that the MKV files have subtitles embedded but they are not being listed when I try to play subtitles. Is it possible to make these work even through 3rd party software?
Information on files I'm trying to play although it seems to be a problem with any high bitrate MKV:
ViDEO CODEC: x264 [LVL4.1][DXVA]
FRAMERATE: 23.976 fps
BiTRATE: ~ 10500 - 17500 kbps
Thanks in advance
